just simple smart outlet... how do you want to control it other than on/off? a small light is fine, but don't use those cheap smart outlets for a 600-800w+ light. PRobably start a fire eventually even if rated as 15a. seen them melt.

i tested mars tsl version, mine was long , not wide, but TS, its very old series, despite that they have dimmers and conections to automate them aka connect to controlers. there is even adapters sold to fit conections.

How to make stronger smell and flavour in DWC grows?Hi guys. Just harvested my second ever harvest, and 2nd time with DWC. Using HPS, then CMH for last 2 weeks I'm really happy with buds, but the smell is a little less intense that I would like. I have used Cannaboost, which is supposed to increase flavour but I want more! :)

Is growth normally this slow for seedlings? Any advice appreciated.These 3 seeds (of 12) germinated March 19-21; I transferred them to coco coir/perlite soil under 40W full-spectrum grow lights I also use for garden vegetable seedlings. Lights are on 16 hours; off 8 hours, and the seedlings have barely grown in the last 10 days. Is this normal?
